About this episode

This episode discusses the implications of a postliterate society as reflected in current news events.

[00:30] Postliterate World (33 minutes) This week’s news cycle showcases a society that neglects deep reading and study. Commentators claim Jesus loved illegal immigration; President Donald Trump says he only has time to read about himself; Germans are only just discovering that many of their grandparents were Nazi supporters.
